Interiors

La Cloche, Wellington

S&T's interiors work recognises the close relationship between building exteriors and interiors and the importance of achieving solutions that 'work' for their occupants and meet the client's aspirations and organisational goals.

But while form must always follow function, the form can still be crafted with a refinement and dynamic materiality that can provide the user with a space that is an experience.

S&T’s Interiors team keeps au courant with the current design styles and principles and yet create layouts that strive to go beyond these trends to achieve instead a quality and elegance that can endure the test of time. We have been involved in a number of major interior design projects, ranging from corporate offices to retail stores, food outlets, gymnasia, lecture theatres, banking and debating chambers and public foyers.

Les Mills World of Fitness

Lower Hutt

The Hutt gymnasium facility redefines the genre, providing its members with an energising and constantly dynamic environment to achieve the results they are looking for. From the moment you enter the doors and see the welcoming `Hi’ on the reception desk, you are transported to a place of extraordinary light, movement and sound. Huge, expansively-lit walls are saturated with colours and patterns that can change within the hour. Lighting at ground level creates the illusion of floating elements- whether they are performance stages, walls or lockers.
